Welp. TIL. Adding another one to the list of words that I had only ever seen written and never pronounced aloud, at least for the first definition.

Reminder from a local organizer to all your commentariat that the sooner the county reports you've turned your ballot in, the sooner you get taken off our walk and call lists. It's a win/win- you get annoyed less and we can make sure the GotV efforts are reaching people who truly need it.

Can’t wait for all the centrists to explain to me how he’s still the only candidate we’ve got and this is a good thing because it definitely means middle America will vote for him in 2028 (they still won’t.)

Fuck you, Newsom.

At risk of being the bsky user who can’t identify the joke, but also just for the edification of folks, that particular design choice isn’t new, they did this on the bicentennial quarters too. I used to love finding them in my change as a kid.

I mean, it’s also not hard to guess based on the words that are similar in our languages and the image.

I’d say it’s because my FYP has been stuck in another language for a week, but that was German not Swedish. You like ONE Pudding mit Gabel video, I swear…

Thoroughly shamed my local school board into… I’d say doing the right thing, but really it’s more not doing the wrong thing tonight. The decision is closer to a victory than a stay of execution though, so I’m feeling good. Celebrate the wins where you get ‘em, folks. Trans rights are human rights.

I have two for you, though I don’t frequent BGG- Pathogenesis and Transylvania Curses & Traitors. Jamie Cunningham is one of my dearest friends. She designed Pathogenesis initially as a teaching aid for her microbiology students. Features accurate illustrations from textbook artists.

Yeah all respect to OP for writing the article that poses the question and brings it to a wider audience, but anyone who lives in the state already knows the answer.
